ok i just got some pics of my new swa. i have a couple of tagalongs that i need identified plz. also, got a tagalong fire scallop, but the ? is will he live through the rest of my cycle?
my parameters:
ammonia- .25
trites- .50
trates- 10
temp.- 80 F
salinity- 1.025
my tank has been set up for two weeks tomorrow w/lr/ls/and three cocktail shrimp it is a 55 gal.
also, should i add micro-plankton to the tank now for the scallop or what and how should i feed it, wasn't planning on getting one, but since it waws a hitchhiker now that it is in there i kind of like it. oh and btw can anyone tell me if it is reef-safe and will it do ok in my reef aquarium (any worries) any advise appreciated.

Is the scallop attached to a rock?
I dont think he will live. Also I wouldnt feed the tank anymore. It will add too much to your cycle and really cause a spike.

He may or may not who knows "this hobby is unpredictable" as stated I wouldnt add more food to the tank other wise it will just spike it again. Also has your amonia already spiked or is it just starting to rise?

ok well i can't seem to figure out how to add a pic to this thread, but yes my ammonia has already spiked and so has my nitrites, they are both in the process of dropping it is almost time for my big water change. and no the scallop is not attached to a rock anymore he has made his way all over the tank and now he has finally found is resting place on my lr's.

If its not dead already then he has a chance since the levels are dropping. Cross your fingers and hope for the best!

Isn't that a temporal storm just out of orbit around Zantar VII?
It looks just like it...thought the Enterprise was able to disperse the storm with ionic radiation from their photon torpedo's?
hehehe
